Mick M:
It is sad that anyone for the purpose of profit or any other reason, expresses falsehoods and misinformation. First of all: I do not know what test you may be referring to, however, the Faztech test requirements are much more stringent than that of Enersys guidelines or that of the Battery Councel Internationals parameters. Their measurements are more precised and includes a more detailed requirement of that of the above listings. And must point out, true results reported even with the customer present and the local power companies participating, No misinformation.
Second: They do not use MOSFETS controls what so ever and here again your statements intent is to misinform the truth. Your IGBT "Switch" is very energy efficient, however, when you connect the battery into the charge process the efficiency level drops into the 50 to 70% level for the whole charger. Not so with the Faztech charger, it is the only charger that includes the battery into the charge circuit and allows a place for excess energy to be stored and reused.
Third: If you want to consider the Faztech a "fast charger" yes it is under powered compared to current fast chargers on the market. The Faztech "is NOT" and I repeat "Is NOT" a "Fast Charger" as defined by many manufacturers. However, because of it's far advanced technology and design, one of the side benefits is that it can charge a battery with a deeper charge in less time wtih NO significant heat rise. Perhaps you were comparing a 3kw unit with one of your 600 amp rated units. If this is the case, yes your charger would charge in less time with very signigficant heat rise than that of the much smaller and lower rated charger. This would be like comparing a volkswagen to a formula 5 race car.
The Faztech has the ability to build units in a modular design that can meet most application much more safely.
It doesn''t take a rocket scientist to realize that if you try to force a battery to accept 600 amps of energy and it will only accept 200 amps for storage, what happens to the extra 400 amps? It is waisted as heat energy and lost.
Fourth: Yes, there are not very many customers for Faztech right now because it is new, but the list is growing every day. This is a new proven technology and will soon be the premier system because it cares and works with the battery, lowers energy consumptions, and will provide long life for batteries.
If you really understood batteries, charging systems, electrochemical process's,
you wouldn't being trying to sling mud, but would embrace new concepts, performance and designs that actually work and I promise will improve.
If your mind is so limited, then I can see why you think Faztech is just smoke and mirrors.
